When else do you have your choice of over 150 different theatre productions, street performers from around the world, and so many green onion cakes/mini donuts it makes my tummy hurt just thinking about it!

2 Times the Fun

With my boyfriend gone to Europe for two weeks and with work being extremely slow, I have a lot more free time on my hands! 

What am I gonna do with all this free time, you ask...

I have two Fringe shows that I am working on this year. Bells Are Ringing with Plain Janes Theatre, directed by Kate Ryan and Kefa's Metamorphosis with Selchie Theatre, directed my Keltie Brown! I couldn't be more excited. Both shows consist of amazing casts, I am honoured to work with so many talented artists!


Stay tuned for show times, more info to come!
